I'm so confused. Presently, my husband and I have an '05 Pilot and '99 Altima. We are trying to decide which car to trade in for the Odyssey. We have 2 kids (8 and 2) and 1 on the way. I'm trying to make the most economica sense out of our car situation. The Pilot can fit all 3, but it will be tight. Neither of us are car people, so if the Altima goes out, we will be paying a lot to fix it. So, what do we do? Trade in the Pilot for the Odyssey and fix up the Altima until it's paid off next year or trade in the Altima which will leave us terribly upside down and get the Odyssey. (The other thing is that I don't like the idea of 2 big cars.) Any help thinking me through this would be appreciated!

How many miles does it have? What kind of costly repairs are you anticipating? 2. Your 2005 Pilot. Do you own it or lease it? In either case, what is the monthly payment and how much longer do you have to go?

Replying to: dsrtrat2 (Jul 25, 2006 12:22 pm) Excellent point! Too bad there's some nice features (such as power hatch) that you can only get on the Touring model which comes with those PAX tires. Could be another reason to wait for the 2007s, though I do not know if Honda is making any changes in these respects (be it either more features available on the EX trim line, or get-flat tires on the Touring model). |

I've heard scuttlebutt that if anything, Honda will be expanding the 'availability' (ie: standard equipment) of PAX tires on some Accords and the Acura RL (for either '07 or '08 models). A better bet might be Honda offering the power rear hatch to the EX-L. But I haven't heard anything to that effect either.

Jt sounds like there are a lot of people who are in need of some good poop on the '07s. Any one out there with reliable data?

Replying to: davidd3 (Jul 25, 2006 10:10 am) 1. We own the Altima. However, it's probably under one of th worst loan plans known to man. The payments are under $300 and it will be paid off sometime next year. It has about 122k miles and I have no idea what type of repairs to expect. 2. We own the Pilot. The monthly payment is $450 with a really good interest rate, but I think I did it for 5 years - thinking that at some point we would just pay more on the principal but of course that has yet to happen. We have about 4 more years to go. . .
